Spring Flowers A-Z

Azalea blooms show their pink blaze
Begonias in beds amaze
Cornflowers grow in blue delight
Daffodil debuts still thrill our sight
Eastern Redbud, a bright pink splash
Forsythia gold hides winter's ash
Gardenia, soft with creamy hues
Hyacinth paints with varied blues
Irises rise in purple duds
Jasmine vines show pastel buds
Kafir Lilies, a border bloom
Lilacs share their sweet perfume
Magnolias are pink or white
Neillia clusters in rose delight
Orchids grow with pale soft hues
Pansies, purple with darkest blues
Quince's blossoms of pink delight
Red Chokeberry blooms in rose or white
Snowdrops dangle small white gems
Tea Tree Camellias sleep on stems 
Ursinia shows a fiery glow
Viburnum's spread creates a show
Wax Flowers paint a pastel scene
Xylobium...an Orchid dream
Yellow Anemones' full beds bring
Zinnias add their splash to Spring

Andrea Dietrich June 28, 2026 at 3:55 PM These are so fun to try. I think I may have done flowers in the past this way. I also think I did candies and zoo animals. Gotta dig them up for Brian. Great showing here

Walter T. Ashe April 27, 2016 at 3:07 PM Being an artist I will look up some of these flowers I'm not familiar with to see their colors! A very vivid and visual write! The best to you in this contest! Sandra Haight April 27, 2016 at 3:15 PM Thank you for the nice comment and good wishes for the contest, Walter. I am an artist too! However, not so much a gardener, so I did have some research to do for some of them. Thanks again, Sandra
